Dear Mayor Gloria, I am writing in strong opposition to the proposed obliteration to the City of San Diego’s arts and cultural funding. Your proposal to cut an estimated 83% of the arts & culture budget is not only wildly disproportionate compared to cuts across other sectors, but also threatens the sustainability of our region’s arts and culture ecosystem that we have worked so hard to build. Arts as an industry is a proven major economic driver generating over $1.1 billion in local activity, supporting 16,900 jobs and $276 million in tax revenue. Arts and culture also directly support the safety and well being of our neighborhoods by strengthening social cohesion through community engagement and activation of public spaces. —outcomes that align with the City’s stated public safety priorities. Additionally, these cuts will have compounding impacts on historically underfunded, underrepresented, and marginalized communities like ours who already operate with limited resources. San Diegans demand that you: Reverse the proposed cuts to arts and culture funding Preserve critical investments that sustain San Diego’s creative economy and cultural infrastructure Engage meaningfully with arts and culture stakeholders to identify equitable solutions. San Diego’s identity, resilience, and future depend on a thriving arts and culture sector. Stand with our communities and prioritize investments that reflect our shared values. Thank you for your time and consideration.
